During a routine flight in 1956, test pilot Tom Attridge put his jet fighter into a 20 dive for a test of the aircraft’s 20 mm machine cannons. While traveling faster than sound at 4000 m altitude, he shot a burst of rounds.Then, after allowing the cannons to cool, he shot another burst at 2000 m; his speed was then 344 m/s, the speed of the rounds relative to him was 730 m/s, and he was still in a dive. Almost immediately the canopy around him was shredded and his right air intake was damaged.With little flying capability left, the jet crashed into a wooded area, but Attridge managed to escape the resulting explosion. Explain what apparently happened just after the second burst of cannon rounds. (Attridge has been the only pilot who has managed to shoot himself down.)
You are driving in the hot Nevada desert (40oC and 15%rh) on vacation in your 1973 Chevrolet Caprice Classic, retracing the steps of Raoul Duke and his trusty attorney Dr. Gonzo as featured in Hunter S. Thompson’s book Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, when they drove to cover the Mint 400 motorcycle race. Suddenly a puff of smoke appears from under the hood, and when the temperature in your car begins to rise, you realize that your air conditioning system has just broken, miles away from any service station. As panic starts to set in, you recall Dr. Timusk mentioning something in your Building Science lecture about “adiabatic cooling”. As you start to sweat, you wish you had paid more attention in class as the details seem fuzzy at first. But then you see the spray bottle of water in the back seat and it all starts to become clear. You recall that by misting water into the dry, hot desert air inside the car, you should be able to cool it “adiabatically”. A. Given that the air is at 40oC…
